All i am, is a sinner full of lies
and a giver of demise,
skin thinner than a guise
A beginner would devise
So my shiver it implies
that the shimmer in your eyes
Is now bitter and cold
like the simmer of a sigh
Like a liver about to die
Full of liquor on a high
even dimmer than a sky
full of killer butterflies
Maybe one day you’ll drown
In a river of my cries
You know exactly who I am
I’m the devil in command
I’m the karma that you’re due
From each and every broken man
The ****** knife in my hand
I took it out from behind
Where you’ve buried it deep
with every vicious demand
Would you be able to stand
That same knife in your back?
Or just fade into black
while your body start to slack?
I’ll be the karma that you’re due
coming back to attack
I can do it I promise
But I’ll take a step back
Because I’ve learned to forgive
despite all that I lack.
